A game that allowed players to earn cryptocurrency is at the centre of a multi-million dollar heist

The United States has linked North Korea-backed hackers to a massive cryptocurrency heist worth $615 million dollars.

The digital coins were stolen from players of the popular online game Axie Infinity last month.

The hack is likely one of the biggest ever to hit the crypto world.

US officials say they linked the breach to a group called “Lazarus” believed to be controlled by North Korea’s primary intelligence bureau.

An investigation is ongoing.
